For your second nolimits coaster, that was good. But for a NoLimits coaster in general, it was terrible.

There are 2 points on the ride where riders would lose either their head, or at least a body part. G-Forces went as high as 7, and the lateral g-forces were out of control too. There were bad transitions, odd pacing, and the supports werent very realistic.

I dont want to discourage you because you are doing MUCH better than I was when I first started using NoLimits. Practice makes perfect.

Hmmm... This is pretty good for a beginner. The pacing isn't too bad. It's also pretty smooth for your second coaster in NL, although it could be smoother. Problems: The g-forces got too high in spots, both vertical and lateral. Also, those buildings you did with the supports are interesting, BUT the one before the lift would probably take the heads off all the peeps on the ride

Keep trying, the NL editor is hard to get used to at first, but when you get good at it there really are almost no limits to what you can do...

Thumbs down

Yeah, the G's are what really hurt this ride. Also, the supporting on the lift and other areas was a bit unrealistic. As what the others said, keep trying.

Welcome to NoLimits! as a parkmaker you have went for theming... and the do look sense. There are some problems:

1. People's heads are literally chopped off in the little tunnel before the lift starts
2. Too much positive G's (your pulloff curve has to be much bigger, sudden 6-7 G's are very bad to the human bodies!)
3. Jerky spots in some places.

Anyway, it's about 4 times smoother than your previous coaster! Keep up your good work Alien@SixFlags!
